I\u2019m honestly shocked that I haven\u2019t made it until now! It\u2019s so delicious, light, and refreshing. When I was at the store just the other day I noticed<a href=\"https:\/\/www.target.com\/p\/bare-baked-crunchy-fuji-reds-apple-chips-3-4oz\/-\/A-50380848#lnk=sametab\" data-wpel-link=\"external\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"> these apple chips<\/a>. I know that Panera Bread uses crisp, thin apples in their salad for a delicious and sweet crunch. Buying these apple chips makes prep that much easier and brings you an unforgettable salad in minutes. (Although if you\u2019re up to the challenge, try making your own apple chips at home! I have recipes for making them both in the <a href=\"https:\/\/therecipecritic.com\/air-fryer-apple-chips\/\" data-wpel-link=\"internal\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"noopener\">air fryer<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/therecipecritic.com\/baked-apple-chips\/\" data-wpel-link=\"internal\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"noopener\">oven<\/a>.)<\/p>\n<p>I love everything that is in this Fuji apple chicken salad. Fresh spring greens, crunchy pecans, tomatoes, crispy apple slices\u2026 everything comes together in this salad to make it so flavorful and with so many unique and delicious textures. The dressing on top is also incredible. It\u2019s a golden balsamic honey Dijon dressing that makes this salad <em>that <\/em>much better. No need to stop at Panera when you can recreate this salad at home! (And make it taste even better than the real thing!)<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-ingredients-for-panera-s-fuji-apple-salad\">Ingredients for Panera\u2019s Fuji Apple Salad<\/h2>\n<p>Let\u2019s dive into the magic of a homemade Panera Bread favorite: the Fuji apple chicken salad. It\u2019s a mix of tasty ingredients like juicy chicken, fresh greens, and flavorful apple and cranberry! We\u2019ll take a closer look at each ingredient and how they come together to make this tasty salad (and homemade dressing). Get ready to recreate that Panera goodness in your own kitchen! Note: exact measurements are in the recipe card below.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Chicken Breasts<\/strong>: The main protein, making the salad more filling. Use precooked chicken for easy prep. I love this <a href=\"https:\/\/therecipecritic.com\/instant-pot-shredded-chicken\/\" data-wpel-link=\"internal\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"noopener\">shredded chicken recipe<\/a>!<\/li>\n<li><strong>Spring Greens<\/strong>: Fresh, leafy mixed greens for a crunchy base.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Cherry Tomatoes<\/strong>: Sliced in half, cherry tomatoes add both vibrant color and bursts of juicy sweetness.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Red Onion<\/strong>: So the salad has a zesty crunch and a touch of sharpness.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Toasted Pecan Halves<\/strong>: Add a toasty, nutty flavor and also give the fuji apple chicken salad a satisfying crunch.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Apple Chips<\/strong>: Whether you use store-bought or homemade, apple chips infuse the salad with a delightful apple flavor and a satisfying crispiness.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Feta Cheese<\/strong>: Crumbled feta cheese brings a creamy and slightly tangy element to the mix. It\u2019s a great contrast to the other sweet ingredients. Gorgonzola cheese is another great option.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Dried Cranberries<\/strong>: For some tart fruitiness!<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-for-the-vinaigrette\">For the Vinaigrette:<\/h3>\n<ul start=\"9\">\n<li><strong>Extra-Virgin Olive Oil<\/strong>: Smooth, mild oil for the dressing\u2019s base.<\/li>\n<li><strong>White Balsamic Vinegar<\/strong>: A slightly tangy vinegar to add some zing.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Apple Cider Vinegar<\/strong>: A fruity vinegar to enhance the apple theme. You can also use apple juice concentrate.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Garlic<\/strong>: You can\u2019t go wrong with garlic! It helps to balance out the sweetness of the salad.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Dijon Mustard<\/strong>: Dijon mustard adds a hint of sharpness to the dressing and also helps bind all the ingredients together.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Honey<\/strong>: For a little extra sweetness and a dressing that sticks to the greens perfectly.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-how-to-make-fuji-apple-chicken-salad\">How to Make Fuji Apple Chicken Salad<\/h2>\n<p>It comes together in just 3 simple steps! Fuji apple chicken salad is so delicious and easy to whip up, making it the perfect lunch! I know you\u2019ll love this recipe as much as I do.<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li><strong>Toss Salad Ingredients<\/strong>: In a large salad bowl, add the spring mix, chicken, tomatoes, red onion, toasted pecans, and apple chips. Then top with feta cheese and dried cranberries.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Dressing Mixture: <\/strong>In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, white balsamic vinegar, cider vinegar, garlic, dijon mustard, and honey.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Combine: <\/strong>Pour the dressing over the salad and then gently toss to coat the salad ingredients.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"3-photo collage of the sliced chicken, dressing, and salad ingredients.\" class=\"wp-image-226847\" width=\"800\" height=\"800\" title=\"Spring greens get tossed with crisp apples, chicken, tomatoes, dried cranberries, crunchy pecans and feta cheese.
